Piper Aircraft received EASA type certification for its M600 single engine turboprop here at EBACE yesterday. The type certificate was presented by Steven Higgins, EASA section manager for high-performance aircraft and turboprops. “This is a very significant day for Piper,” said Simon Caldecott, Piper president and CEO. “With the recent approval by EASA for single-engine turbine airplanes to operate at night or in instrument conditions, the M600 is ideally positioned to take advantage of this expanded opportunity.” Caldecott noted this was the fifth certification for the six-seat M600, which received FAA certification last year. Here at the show the company has an M600, which is currently in the midst of a European tour, making its EBACE debut on the static display line.
